T HE return of the winter season calls npon the Committee of the above-named Society to make their an nual appeal to the sympathies of the Christian and benevolent por tion of the community, in the assurance that the utility of such an Ins titution —especially at the present time—must be evident to every humane and right minded person. The late alteration in the laws has, on its first application, ne cessarily entailed a considerable degree of suffering on the poor, and thus called for a corresponding portion of private exertion. The limits of an advertisement will not permit a detail of the numerous and painful instances of privation and suffering to which the attention of the Committee has been called during the present and previous years. They are, however, happy in being able to state that their exertions have been in many instances most oppor tune, and the relief afforded has enabled many poor widows to com mence some little business by which they have afterwards provided for themselves and fatherless children. Small weekly allowances have also, in some cases, been the means of keeping families toge ther under the parental roof, and preventing them from resorting to the painful necessity of seeking an aslum in a wor kh ouse. During the present year several liberal donations from persons of rank and affluence have given the Committee an opportunity of relieving a greater number of persons, and those more effectually than for some years past, and they trust that they shall not be com pelled to relax in their truly Christian labours for want of a supply of those means which the bountiful Giver of all good has entrusted to many to be used to hi s g l ory, an d f or the benefit of their poorer fellovr-creatures. ElSubscription s an d d onat i ons w i ll be received by the Rev. R. onro, Vi ce -P res i dent, Bridewell Hospital ; W. Chippendale, sR ~ Treasurer, 130, Bunhill-row ; Messrs.

BATH, JAN. IS, 1838. s in, -1 have lately seen in the True Sun of the 20th ult. of yours upon th e N ew P oor Law proposed for Ire land. in this letter y our fi rst o b servation is that Poor Laws a t l w edt i i t l er nece ssarily ln create a heavy charge upon property which can never be remitted." I ask, why should it ever be remitted ? Charity is a duty which b e l ongs to Governments as well as to individuals —neither should allow the destitute to starve, and when t h e possessors of property in Ireland have for ages cast off the Christian duty of Charity, and left the " heavy charge" is,au paupers, Ireland r g e a la i n n d a i s s k t , h e ss p ' of supporting the poor upon the poor themselves, and, more over,-hen these proprietors have, by their injustice and cruelty w s millions erva t of o n p heavy charge" upon their property ever be remitted? ob h o y or si e l s o t u c l o d un t t h ry is and the English Legislature proposes to relieve our pot by a heavy taxation on the actual occupiers of our lands houses and a- • Sir,lreland is not the poorest country in the world ; but she is the created two most country • in the world, for her fertile d the labour of a naturally industrious people have lands an and thus has been separated,the creation and accumulation of capita • l been presented preve by a wicked monopoly of judicial power i n Y th o e u t r ee n r e a in the hands of her conquerorsconquerors to th e exc l us i on of the con quered (that i s to sa y , n latter ti mes, P rotestants and Catho lics), and the la ws made by the first were, and are still, so op pressive to the last, that the population has not only lost all confidence in them, but considers these laws to be an invention of the enemy. Now, a good Government ought, surely, to make a just distribution of the riches of Ireland, so as to relieve a portion of the population reduced by the landed pro prietors to a state bordering on starvation ? Iu the next paragraph that I shall notice, you say, " I could I u nderstand the conferring of favour or bou n ty on I re l and by the people of E"gland or S co tl an d contributing to the relief of our poor. But the taxing of the Irish to enrich the Irish is a process o f new hind, of which one cannot well see a satisfactory result." Rather say, that you do not choose to see the satisfactory re sult ! I dare say, Mr. O'Connell you have heard the old s aying, that "none are so blind as those who won't see." I cannot, therefore, enlighten you, but I may prevent your blind ing others. In this paragraph you ingeniously make the Mi nistry appear to lay on the poor tax, for the purpose of adding to the mr.ss of riches already in Ireland ; or, as it were, to import riches :as if the Ministers expected by a Poor-law to send gold into Ireland, not in exchange for the produce of industry, but as a gift—in the same manner that a subscription for the poor Irish made in England and Scotland would do. And you say you cannot understand this. No I neither can I, nor any one else as you state the question, lumping bad Poor laws and good Poor -laws together as similar in their effects! But every one can understand that if the Irish proprietors have robbed the Irish labourers of their right to live in the land of their nativity, and force them to seek subsistence in other countries, while their own rich country lies waste and unculti vated—if the Irish proprietors do this, then a law, which re stores what th e r i ch have stolen from the poor will enrich the poor. Assuredly a good Poor-law would not import gold without an equivalent into Ireland ; but it would augment the riches of Ireland by the very fact of making a change in the distribution of property already existing 1 If, for example, I have a right to half' the produce of a hundred acres of hind, and that the man who has possession of this land will not allow are to cultivate his land, but insists upon letting the hundred acre s li e waste, and obliges me to spend my life without work, or seek my subsistence in foreign countries, will not my p roperty be augmented by a law which forces him either to maintain me. or to let me cultivate the hundred acres for the produc e of which, having a ready market, I can obtain five guineas an acre, and maintain myself in comfort ? Will not such a law "augment" my property? Assuredly it will : and such would be the effect of a noon Poor-law in Ire land, in which yo u "cannot see a s a ti s f ac t ory resu l t !" S uc h a law would a l ter the mode of distribution of property already existing ; it would give my property in labour to my neighbour i n exc h ange for his property in money; and there would be an increase of property, by as much as waste land would be converted into productive land —that is to say, the union, or application, of waste land and labour to caeli other would create capital.

' T ' -- PRICE sd. he just principle of a GOOD Poor-law is, in the first place, to make property contribute to the support of that poverty which the possessors of that property have created : and, in the second place, to force the rich to give employment to the poor : for the landlords who possess the five millions of acres of waste land, now existing in Ireland, will employ labourers to cultivate that land rather than support those labourers in the Poor-house. If they do not do this, a transfer of property from .he rich to the poor must be the consequence of a coon Poor-law—_a consequence both just and politic. The osten sible object of a Poor law is, therefore, to obtain justice for the poor Irish, by a wholesome pressure on the self-interests of the rich Irish. Such is the great and virtuous principle of a GOOD Poor-law. It is not. merely " taxing the Irish to en rich the Irish," but taxing the rich Irish to support the poor Irish ! You well know that a GOOD Poor-law is the only tax which does not fall upon the poor, but upon the rich, and is therefore liked by the poor and disliked by the rich. On the contrary, a BAD Poor-law, as you also know, falls cruelly upon the poor, and is in favour of the rich ; therefore is disliked by the poor, and liked by the rich. Now, Sir, you very ingeniously mix u p b o th th ese l aws toget h er, for the purpose of blurting upon the coon Poor-law the odium which justly attaches to a BAD one—thus exciting the deluded Irish la bourer to oppose the former. In your next paragraph you speak plain sense. " The question then is simply this—Will the new distribution be more beneficial to the poor than the old ?" If so, you admit that " Poor-laws ought to be adopted at once." In answer I ask you, was the old distribution of property good ?—was it even tolerable ?—was it not driving the labouring Irish to despera tion ?—was it not a state of outra 4e upon !alma city, upon Chris tianity, and crying to God for that remedy which man re solved not to apply ? Was it not a state which, in time, must produce one of three things—A law to protect the poor?—or a sanguinary rebellion ?—or the annihilation of the people by starvation and emigration—by that horrible system cancel " clearing estates" so warmly advocated by Lord Stanley_ a system in which folly and cruelty rival each other in the work of destruction ! Now, Sir, you well k eow, that a coop Poor Law would produce a new and better distribution of pro perty than now exists in Ireland, and, therefore, GOOD " Poor Laws ought to be adopted at once , " for on their b e i ng come the whole question hing es . if they be bad Poor Laws, the new distribution will, unquestionably, be for the worse. You say—" my own deliberate opinion, an opinion a.xiously formed, is that in no shape ever did a general Poor Law (I mean a Poor Law including able-bodied paupers), an l that it ne ver can diminish the amount ofpoverty in any country however favourably circumstanced for the experiment." It is not easy to understand your last sentence. What do you mean by a country " favourably circumstanced for the experiment of Poor Laws?" Do you mean a country well governed ?—or do you mean a country ill governed ? However, I have main tained, in the foregoing part of this letter that a Poor Law can diminish the amount of poverty in either case ; but let us dis sect this matter still farther. First—We who defend Poor Laws, mean good and not bad Poor Laws. Second—Good Poor Laws assist the destitute poor. Third—The destitute are those who have boon struck down by misfortune into a state of pauperism ; industrious people, but having no employment for that industry, or being too old for work, or sick, or maimed, and consequently starving. These last may be found in a well governed country ; but, in that case, their numbers must be so few as to render their sup port unimportant in the scale of taxation ; where they are found in great numbers, as in England, Ireland, and Scotland, the country must have been long, and hideously ill governed, and it is the duty of those Ministers to whom the government of such an ill-used country falls, promptly to feed those whom their predecessors had nearly reduced to a state of starvation ; and, at the same time, to take such measures as shall throw the labour market open to the industrious, while they prevent the idle from being a charge upon their neighbours. Both these steps are necessary : for a legislator ought to deal with the mischievous rich as severely as with the mischievous poor. Such are the essential qualities of a Goon Poor-law, and such a Poor-law would, in Ireland, " make a distribution more beneficial to the poor than the old." And therefore, I repeat again and again your own words— " Poo r laws ought to be adopted at once." But not only does a good Poor-law diminish poverty and soothe outraged hu manity; but it gives safety to society, and vigour to the laws. In proof cf this I will tell you what Poor-laws have done in this respect. The old Poor-laws of England, bad as they were in the arrangemext of their practical details, gave a con fidence to the people, and told the poor that they had rights which would preserve life in the hour of distress; None of the abuses to which that law gave rise (or rather, none of the abuses to which heavy taxation gave rise), could deprive the people of this confidence in their natural, and legal right, to a support out of the land. The people of England, therefore, patiently endured, up to the enactment of the New Poor-law, all the sufferings which war, taxation, and bad government imposed upon them ; for they always considered that they had legal protection against starvation. I therefore firmly believe (and I am by no means singular in that belief), that the old Poor-law, from the justness of its principle and in despite of the badness of its practice, has been the means of pre serving the English people in a state of comparative comfort, tranquillity, and obedience It saved us from highway rob beries and agrarian ontroges. In Ireland there are no recognised Poor-laws : the labour ing Irishman feels that he has no protection from the laws, but in his courage and in his disobedience to those laws : he feels that he is starved by bad government ; that, in the extreme of distress, there remains nothing for him but to perish, and when dying ho knows that part of the little he once possessed has been torn from him by the Protestant Clergyman, whose religion he abhors, for, to him, it has been tyrannical, not Christian ; and he expires in the arms of the indefatigable Catholic Priest. This Priest may be go o d, or he maybe bad; the truth of his religion may be disputed, but no man can deny that, to the dying Irish Catholic labourer, he gives the only comfort which this life affords to him. Yet Clergy of all religions are excluded from any interference with the - poor 1 Can it then be a matter of wonder that the Irish labourer is hostile to laws which give him no protection? —to a religion which gives him no comfort ? Certainly not. He is, to all intents and purposes, treated as an outcast. But, Sir, if the coop Poor-laws, which you so contemn, bad existed, even the old English Poor-law, the Irishman, like the English man, would have felt conscious that his right to live upon the land of his nativity was recognised by the law. He would have asserted that right ; and long ere Ireland had blushed to acknowledge two millions of paupers, her absentee Aris tocrats would have been rudely recalled to their estates, and resident proprietors have learned that their labourers had a vested interest in the land, which the cruelty and recklessness of landlords dare not openly trifle with ! The labourer could not have been refused support, and whatever evil was the cause of his poverty, the pressure of the Poor-laws upon the land would have long since forced an enquiry, detected that evil, and have ameliorated the Irish labourer's destiny. You will no doubt answer, that this difficulty would have been met as in England by a new Poor-law, and that I have myself condemned this New Poor-law. Exactly so ; but then, the Irish people instead of having, to our eternal dis grace, suffered numerous famines, would have suffered no, famine at all ; and would have been in the same state that the English now are, viz., knowing their right to subsistence from the land, and sternly determined to force a reformation of the New Poor-law Amendment Act ; which Act will, if not re formed, force them to become poachers and highwaymen, and, liko the Irish, to commit agrarian outrages of every descrip tion, till et last a rural police will become necessary, unarmed at first, and then armed as in Ireland. All this will, it ap pears to me, be the result of breaking down the principles of the old Poor Law, instead of breaking down its abuses. If I run correct in this reasoning, as I firmly believe, then, Sir, a coon Poor-law in Ireland will unquestionably diminish the amount of poverty in Ireland; it will also diminish the quan tity of discontent and outrage. It may diminish your rent, which I should rejoice to see diminished in that way as much as I should regret to see it diminished in any other. I now come to that paragraph where I go entirely with you : "Even those who do approve of a general Poor-law, must, if they will reflect on the details, condemn the Ministerial Poor law as emphatically as I do." Sir, I do cordially join with you in this, and in all you say from this paragraph to the end of your letter, except in your abuse of the English Radicals. I think, however, that you mix up the disgustingly stupid Poor-lare Bill, proposed by Lord John Russell—which will realize the fable of Pandora's box—which will do all the mischief you prophecy, and probably much more—which will perhaps create an in surrection ; you mix up this new Bill with a GOOD Poor-law Bill, such as would be advocated by men possessing really vigorous and statesinenlike minds, and not likely to concoct such a piece of legislation as the proposed Bill of Lord John Russell, and his protegee Mr. Nicholls. In your present re sistance to this law, Sir, I congratulate you as much as I was disgusted at your voting for it last year, while you ex plained some of the evils it would bring upon your country. Your conduct, Mr. O'Connell, never was open or consistent upon this question ; you have always shuffled upon it, for you are tossed to and fro between public opinion and your private interest. You know that public opinion favours a GOOD Poor-law for Ireland, aid as vou live by public opinion, you dread to oppose it. On the other hand, you know that a GOOD Poor-law would quickly render the Irish la bourer too comfortable to be any longer dependent upon you; and that consequently your rent would cease ! If you were really a patriotic man—if you really loved the Irish people, you would yourself frame a poor-law ; or, instead of quoting Captain Kennedy's pamphlet (" Analysis of Projects proposed for the Relief of the Poor of Ireland "), as you and several Members of Parliament have done, without acknowledging that they drew upon him for their informa tion, you would have consulted with that officer and Mr. Blake, two men who know more of the Irish poor than all our public men put together, yourself included, and thus have effectually exposed the Nicholls -Russell-law against the poor to the contempt and reprobation it so richly deserves. If you do not reprobate a GOOD poor-law, crush by the exhibition of one this detestable project against the Irish laleourers. If, on the contrary, you are opposed to any poor-law, however good, attack the principles of such a system openly ; show that they are fallacious, but do not suppose that you delude men, by PUBLICATIONS Now ready, Portrait, Bvo. 12g.

' 'J J ~f ~ ~/ Yesterday morning, between twelve and one o'clock, as police-constable Simmonds, D 65, who was on duty in High-street, Marylebone, was passing the house of Mr. Miers, linen-eraper, called Victoria House, and is situated at the corner of Weymouth -street and High-street, he was called irk by the servant girl, who stated that she was directed by her master to request his assistance for the purpose of putting out a fire, which had then commenced in the house. Simmonds went into the shop and was provided with some pails of water, but he soon found that his efforts would not be attended with success. He sprang his rattle and alarmed the neighbours, and Johnson, D 108, went to the King-street, Baker-street, station-house for the Loudon fire brigade engine, which was the first to arrive. By this time the fire was raging in almost all parts. The next engine was that from Marylebone-lane, which was followed by the Wells-street, and King-street, and; County, the latter being warned by the reflection of the flames_ There was a plentiful supply of water, with which, by the exertions of the firemen and others, the progress of the de structive element was speedily checked, but not before the house of Mr. Miers was completely gutted, and the next, No. 29, in the occupation of Mr. Bucknal, tailor, had received considerable injury. About half-past one o'clock the wall of the house of Mr. Miers, in Weymouth -street, and part of it in High-street, came down with a frightful crash, fortunately without occasioning personal injury to anyone. How the fire, originated is unknown, though there is a variety of rumours in the neighbourhood upon the subject. The police were very active in assisting the inhabitants to remove their goods.

Your arguments are good against the Lord John Russell Poor-law; they are good for nothing against a good poor-law :it will not do, Mr. O'Connell ; your exhi i ition of the Bill produced by Lord John Russell and Mr. Nicholls will not overthrow the principles adopted by such men as Burleigh, Bacon, Cobbett, Doyle, and Kennedy. They are your masters on this subject, and against such rocks both your sophistry and your rent will be shipwrecked ! Con sult your own glory ; take the lead in framing a good posr law for Ireland; neither Lord John nor Mr. Nichol's are men to stand before you, and in this manner it is Ijust possible that, however late, you may yet overthrow the " Landlords' Bill:" you will, then, do your duty to Ireland against the mischief that these men are ignorantly concocting ; in so doing, you will honestly earn your " rent." But if you pursue your hitherto vacillating course with regard to the Poor-laws, you will add one more proof to the truth of the assertion, that " Ireland never yet confided, without being deceived !" The paragraph in the latter part of your letter, to which I have said that I cannot accede, is that in which you class the leading English Redicals with the Spottissvoode con spirators, and with this mischievous Poor-law Bill. You place our leaders, Sir, at the head of evils inflicted by England upon Ireland I In what way have the English Radicals, and more especially the leading English Radicals, failed in their duty towards their countrymen in Ireland ? Have they not, on every occasion, advocated the interests of Ireland in the most open and fearless manner ? Did they not denounce this very Poor law, when you, O'Connell, v o t e d w i t h t h e Whig Ministers in favour of it ? What was the difference between their coaduet and yours? Why, this, that while you (with a short-sighted or treacherous policy, maintained that the " lucky accident" of Lord Mulgrave being Lord Lieutenant, was a certain cure for Ireland's wrongs), supported the mischievous Whig Govern.. ment, which is injurious to the whole empire, and therefore to Ireland, in spite of Lord Mulgrave's excellent but tempo rary Administration : while you did this, the English Radicals denounced the Whig Government—they saw that it could give no security for justice to Ireland, while it was doing positive injustice to England ; while it was supporting the House of Lords against all organic change in that House, without which, as you have justly said, " Ireland can never get jus tice"—while it was ignorantly producing rebellion in Canada— while it was refusing the Ballot and extension of the Suffrage—. and, finally, while it was, as I have already said, framing this ruinous Poor-law Bill for Ireland, which, you justly say, "caps the climax of mischief"—such has been the conduct of the English Radicals —open, manly, sound, and really advantageous to Ireland ; whereas your own was temporizing, shuffling, and feeble. Sir, your accusation against the leading English Radicals is wholly without foundation. I can give a strong instance of this, by referring you to the excellent leading arti cle of the True Sun of May Ist, 1837, in consequence of your speech on this very Irish Poor-law. " Mr. O'Connell pro fesses to yield to necessity. He will if necessary, support the Bill which he disapproves, in order to ascertain by experiment, whether his conviction is a mistaken one. This is very un statesmanlike. There can rarely, if ever, be occasion for ex perimental legislation. All his arguments, his expedients, his propositions prove, that he ought to apply himself to the amendment and extension of the measure before the House. Instead of agreeing with the opposition to the Ministerial Bill and voting in its favour, let him aim at improving it in the mode suggested by his own views. Why does he not advocate for both countries a law in the just and generous, the wise and Christian spirit of the original Poor-law, which recognises every man's right to live, and enforces every man's duty to labour ?" Such was the statesmanlike advice given you by Mr. D. W. Harvey ; an advice full of advantage to Ireland, at the moment when you supported this accursed " experiment," which you now correctly term " EMPHATICALLY A LANLORD'S BILL ;" an " experiment" which now, as you pretend, frightens you, and which now you justly call upon your countrymen to oppose ! Seeing the mischief which this Bill must inevitably pro duce, it was, nevertheless tolerated by you at the very time when the English Radicals denounced it boldly, and with un qualified censure ; and yet, you now turn upon them, and place them in your list of enemies to Ireland 1 Again in my brother's speech at the Bath dinner you will find these words : " Now; I am not one of those who look upon Ireland as something separate and distinct from the rest of the empire, nor upon the Irish people as outcasts, upon whom Whigs and To ries may practise (" their EXPERIMENTS !!!") to ascertain how far oppression may be carried with impunity. I hold the Irish people to be part and parcel of the great British family ; and I be lieve they will obtain justice when the whole people obtain it, not before. That is, when we obtain Ministers so enlight ened, that in passing a great measure they will not stop to consider whether the persons to be affected by it are Catholics or Protestants, Churchmen or Dissenters, Englishmen, Irish men or Canadians ; but whether the measure itself be ono founded on the eternal, tile immutable principles of justice." Are these the words of an enemy to Ireland ? and uttered, too, when you were supporting Whig "experiments" in gene ral, and this experiment in particular Sir, I repeat that there is no foundation for your accusation against the leading English Radicals; and I can only attribute the accusation to their denunciation of your unstatesman-like truckling to the Whig Government. I had proceeded thus far wheu your second letter upon the present Poor-law for Ireland appeared. It contains nothing new, nothing that has not already been said by others, espe cially by " the leading English Radicals :" but it is excel lently well compiled, and with the sanction of your name will be of the greatest utility. No man can read your second let ter without being convinced of the truth of all you assert, unless perhaps that man be Lord John Russell or Mr. Nicholls, and unfortunately for England and Ireland these are the men who have power to inflict this curse upon the country. There seems to be no hope of security but in your influence and genius. In neither of these (you will excuse my frankness) have I any confidence : your assistance in the eleventh hour is too suspicious ; and, as I have before said, you denounce the Whig Poor-law, while you offer no substi tute. I believe, Sir, that your object in not calling upon Ireland to appeal against the present Poor-law, till it has been prepared and ready for promulgation by the Whig Government, has arisen from a secret desire to see it inflicted upon your unhappy country, as an excellent fulcrum for "agitation" and the raising of the " rent ;" else why was not this appeal published (as Captain Kennedy's " Analysis" was), the instant the danger appeared ?—that is to say nearly a year ago, when Lord John Russell first made his intentions known. Why did you then shuffle between Whiggery and Radicalism ? Sir, I believe your object is not to have a Goon Poor-law for Ireland, but to leave her the choice between the illegal Poor law, which unfortunate cir cumstances, and the charitable disposition of the Irish la bourers, have long established to her great distress, and the mischievous, the insupportable, the murder-creating Poor-law which Lord John Russell proposes to inflict upon that country. However, whether your motives be good or bad, your second letter is an excellent compilation, and I sincerely hope may be effectual : if not, you, Mr. O'Connell, are the man who has saddled the " Landlord's-bill" upon Ireland. Yon assisted in hatching the monster when you could have destroyed it. Upon your head, therefore, in conjunction with Lord John Russell and Mr. Nicholls, be all the evils it may produce. Yet, you pretend to taunt the leaders of the English Ra dicals with abandoning the interests of Ireland ! You pretend to say that their lukewarmness has driven you to seek a repeal of the Union. What ! has Roebuck, has Leader, has Moles worth, has IlUme, has Grote ?—have these men been luke warm about Ireland ? Assuredly not. The whole British public knows that they have not. If you seek to make them serve the purpose of a " scape-goat" for your own tergiversa tion, Mr. O'Connell, you deceive yourself : you cannot long thus delude the people by such sophistry. To conclude : you have lately boasted of your benevolent feelings towards all men. Truly, Sir, I find no sample of either benevolence, or justice, or political honesty in your ac cusation of the English R a di ca l s , as disloyal to Ireland.- But I am willing to admit that there is plenty of talent and incon trovertible argument against the Irish Poor-law Bill in your two letters on that subj ec t. H a d your oppos i t i on to this Bill been contemporary with that of Captain Kennedy, I should have bad the honour of signing myself, with great respect, Your obedient humble Servant, C. J.
